Ortega is the founder and is here to
give us a little 101 on a Spanish
delicacy when I first came in the studio
and saw that I thought it looks like
prosciutto but it is not you said this
is better than prosciutto right yes this
is a serrano ham from Spain yes it's
kind of much better than the Udo
completely sure Spanish than the day to
do the hand better than the Italian
restaurant others continue and you say
you can take this whole ham and just cut
it up and it would not taste the same
but you have to do it so delicately
right exactly for the reason we need
always we need a special tools like
knife like this is a hammer NATO and
this special platform what is it about a
harmonious well it's also called we say
we say jamon arrow or ham or hermanita
okay depend of in our case we say they
always hammer NATO ceremonial knife it
was lies so so thing and we use another
kind of knife to when you finished you
need to cut everything and mark where
you cut on the side and always try to be
straight okay right because when you cut
like this it's like let's see okay so
yes look at that
yes and when you can try this you can
put on different like tomato or bread or
fruit even with cheese and make a very
very typical tapa front of Spain and
it's got a very very rich rich flavor to
it it almost kind of a yes it because
this cure is completely natural we put
on solved during two or three weeks and
after we cure in fresh air with during
six to 18 month and we've got a couple
different ways to get to assemble them
here so how are we gonna do this yes we
are going to prepare the first one is
with tomato first tomato a slide of
bread all right so your tomato yes put a
drizzle of olive oil please

simple like that yes this is a very
typical tapa okay can drink what you can
eat or with a beer or wine or only for
you know only like an appetizer and this
is another appetizer you can prepare
with the same way with fruit and I cut
you a little bit for you and you've got
the the sweetness from the fruit and
then the the acidity with the tomatoes

there and you're gonna go right and put
lay this in sweet well you also said the
serrano ham has similar characteristics
in way too olive oil as far as vitamins
